Spindrift Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I shop at Wal Mart and Sam's Club frequently. I also look for items produced in my home state, or American made whenever practical. Some folks like to bash big entities like Wal Mart and Microsoft.  I say first really monitor everything you buy for a month, determine where it was made and who benefited from your money, Then tell us what you've learned.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ancient Ways Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I'm not rich but navigating their parking lot and walking their huge store to stand in a ridiculously long line and not receive service is not worth the fairly small savings that you get from shopping there. Most other store's sale prices are competitive and if I have to go in to a big box I'll go to Target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of those certainly do, some do not, but what im saying is Wal-mart destroys communities one city at a time on so many levels. If you dont know the facts, do a little research and i promise you, you will change your thoughts on this whole issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel very sorry for that Employee and his family. Â As far as Walmart - knowing they were holding inventory and refusing to sell it until Black Friday seems Corporate brought this on themselves!

lerxt1990 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I shop wherever they have stuff I need at the cheapest price, and also where I can buy everything I need at one place especially when I have the kids. That frequently includes Wal Mart and Target, I dont have a beef with either store. I allow the market to control itself and act in whats MY best interest. The things about the trampling is ridiculous; absolutely ridiculous. So unecessary. I hope the f-cking as-holes who helped trample him can soothe the fact that they committed murder with the 0.99 they saved on a bag of Life Savers.

Shop weekends; everything is on sale. I make sure I look nice, but I have better things to spend money on than clothes and accessories. Weird for a female, I know. It also helps that the dress code where I work is "wear clothes". They wouldn't care, or even notice, if I wore my ratty sweats I use for pajamas. Concert tees are the norm around there.
